No More Frustration

If you ask yourself these kinds of questions...

Why does he continue to soil my home?

When will she stop jumping up on everyone she meets?

How do I get her to stop pulling when we go for a walk?

Just what will it take before he pays attention to me and reliably does what I ask?

...We know the answers!

No More Worries

If you have a dog that displays aggression or anxiety your concerns are different. You worry if Buddy might bite or injure somebody. Or you've noticed that Bella is frequently on edge and can't seem to relax in some situations, whether it's around new people or in new places. Either way, you can tell your dog is not happy and you're not either.

The Trained Canine will design a program of behavior modification so you and your dog can relax!

Effective communication and a humane approach is the key to helping your dog become the canine friend that you know he can be.

"Thank you for giving me my life back."

Dear Scott,

I just wanted to take a few moments to say thank you so very much for giving me my life back. I had all but given up on Monte, my 3 year old standard poodle, because everyone told me he was just crazy and that I should get rid of him. I had taken him to a behavioral vet and spent a fortune on drugs such as Paxil, Prozac, Zanax, etc., however nothing worked. I was very frustrated because I'd had three other standard poodles that were so easy to train and were so obedient and then came Monte...
